Observer Editorial: Stocking Stuffers

In October, OUToberFest was held at the DeMeester Band Park shell in Reid Park in Tucson to mark LGBT Pride in the Old Pueblo.

Thousands of people, straight or LGBTQ, young and old, as well as many pets converged on the bandshell, after paying for tickets, to have a wonderful time, be proud and support the LGBTQ community, it’s businesses, organizations and service agencies.

This event was produced by Tucson Pride Inc. (Tucsonpride.org) a Arizona non-profit corporation and an IRS 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that produces and promotes cultural, educational and recreational events for the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender community in Tucson, Arizona.

So during these times, especially over the holiday period, which LGBT organizations or charities received proceeds from this event - the intended purpose for the October gathering?
